Jim wonders if he made a mistake asking them to be the Godparents. Harley told him that Phillip just has a lot on his mind and is upset. Jim thinks he understands but wants him to understand why he asked them to do it. Beth and Phillip come back and Jim and Harley stand up. Jim apologizes for pressing the subject but tells Phillip that he does have a reason for asking. "A part of it is for Lizzie...but mostly for the child Beth is carrying. If anything was to happen to them, this child would have to go somewhere and I want to keep this family intact. In my heart this is the best thing for my child." He trusts his baby with Phillip and Harley. He gives the picture to Beth and goes to leave. Phillip stops him and says "Jim? I'll do it."

"You made him do it, if you had told the truth none of this would be happening." He tells her that it will all come out in the end and she will be left all alone. He told her that he knew she poisoned his mother. "You tried to kill her, Give me one good reason why I should not do the same to you!"

Carmen made some comment about Bill just being upset that his mother is sick and Bill grinned and said, "I must have forgotten to mention this to you Carmen, my mom's awake and getting better everyday..." She acts like she is happy for him and asked when all that happened. He told her it happened right after Matt took the lip balm to an independent lab for testing. Carmen looks panicked. Bill tells her that she can deny her part in this all she wants but he doesn't buy it and no one else will when Vanessa tells her story.

Rick told her that he was just tired but she told him that he doesn't have to lie to her. He came clean and told her that he is scared for his sister and for Lizzie. Abby reassures Rick. She says he can't hide his emotions from her. He is scared to walk by radios and TV's in case he hears about Michelle being found dead somewhere. Rick talks her that he is also scared about Lizzie and he says he knows there is no escape when he looks into her eyes. There is a 5% she will not make it he says and he loves Lizzie. All they can do is wait and he is sick of waiting for the police to call, for the chemo to take effect, for the next test results, or for the cops to come and take him to jail. Rick tells Abby about Jesse's fake heart attack. "I helped my sister get away Abby, and David is coming after me." Rick tells Abby everything about the escape, Jesse on the ground and how he played doctor. Abby asks if he knew he was faking and Rick says he was suspicious but he didn't know for sure. Now he does. Abby asks if they can prove Rick had something to do with it. Rick doesn't know. But he told her to look on the bright side, "if they find her Michelle and I can have a adjoining jail cells." Abby told him to not give up. Rick yells, very angrily, that Michelle is NOT GOING TO BE CLEARED! He breaks down and cries and Abby is stunned. "There is no hope!! That is why Danny broke her out of jail.... there is no hope...she will get the death penalty or spend her entire life in jail. I'm sorry Abby.... I didn't mean to yell at you it's just.... I wish I had the faith in God that you do, I really do...I wish I could believe god will protect my little sister, but I just don't. I don't know what I believe anymore." Rick in crying. Abby tells him that he needs to step back and take a rest, there is nothing you can do to change anything. Abby says Rick can't change what happened to Lizzie and Michelle but he can take a step back because this is taking a toll on him. His hands are shaking and he is tired. "It's been a long day." "Then come home with me, and shut the rest of the world out. You need it, we need it Rick." He says he can't. "Rick, come home with me. We need to talk this out." Rick says it won't do any good. "I'm sorry." and he leaves the room.

David rushed inside the little shed after seeing Father Ray. Thankfully Michelle and Danny had gotten out in time and hid in the bushes. Ray was relieved and told David that he told him they weren't here. David questions Ray and he tells David that he was hoping they were there and all right. David didn't believe him. Ray says he has no idea where they are. "Look I don't care what you think..." Ray says and starts out the door. David stops him from leaving.

He wants to take Ray to the station. "You will take a priest?" "When the priest is a Santos yes." Ray tells him that he admits it; he flew in by helicopter and swept Danny and Michelle out of the country early that morning. David tells him to stop joking around; he knows Ray knows where they are. Ray leans over to pick up a piece of paper he dropped. David grabs it. It is concerning two reservation for plane tickets in an hour. David grinner and asked Ray where his collar was. David accused him of giving it to Danny for a disguise. David doesn't believe anything Ray says.

He says the yacht is out at sea all the time so they won't notice right away. "This is it, this could really work." she says and they hug. "Nothing's going to happen." Danny says and adds that they will not catch them. "I swear to you they will never catch us."

At Spaulding:
Lizzie in Alan's office, they have lots of work to do. Alan says he has some stocks and he has no idea what to do with them. Lizzie told him which ones to buy and which ones to sell. Then they went to bills. He asked her if they should pay her doctor bill. He says was he a good doctor? Did he hurt her? I think it was just a way to help her talk a little about it. Lizzie said they should pay the doc because she didn't even feel the needle and wasn't sick at all. So Alan paid the bill and went on to the next matter at hand. He has a business pal of his on the line and he has to complete the deal. He tells her what to say, tells the man on the line that he will have to discuss this with his partner and hands her the phone. Lizzie tells the guy, "Ok let's cut to the chase 25 million and that's our final offer!" and she hangs up! Alan smiles. The guy called back and Lizzie did the same thing. Alan said she closed a 25 million dollar deal all by herself.

At Spaulding:
Lizzie is showing her mom, dad and Harley all the work she did. Alan is very proud of her and tells her that she is just like her dad when he was her age. Beth wants to go out for ice cream. Lizzie thinks she should work some more since she had only been there a half-day. Alan told her that he thinks they should all go for ice cream since the labor laws provide for each employee to have a break. They leave. Edmund comes in to talk to Phillip. He wants his board seat. Phillip tells him, "NO." Edmund reminds him about the tape he is blackmailing him with and Phillip tells him to go for it. He tells him to show it to who ever he wants, then he will have nothing and get nothing. Phillip tells him that he can hurt him and his family but he will only be able to do that once, then he will have nothing over him. That is when Edmund will have to look out, because Phillip said he would take care of him and he would be left all alone and with nothing. So, Phillip tells him that leaves them both with a nothing to win everything to lose proposition. Edmund tells him not to call his bluff he is not going to crawl away with his tail between his legs. Alan and the gang come out, ready to leave and Alan gave Edmund some documents and announces that he is recommending him for a seat on the board. Phillip adamantly says, "NO!" Alan tells him that he already decided and that Phillip has too much on his plate so he should just deal with those things and he will take care of the rest. Phillip went into his office to finish some work, telling Edmund that he may get a nomination but there is no way he will get the votes to get a seat.
Everyone is gone but Beth and Edmund. Beth apologizes to Edmund for Phillip; she has no idea why he acts this way. Edmund tells her that he knows why, he tells her about the plane and the tape and that he knows the true parentage of the baby. He also makes it seem as he just happened upon the tape and saw what it was and took it to Phillip so it wouldn't get in the wrong hands. He says he is on their side and knows that they both thought they were about to die and reached out to each other. Edmund says that for some reason Phillip thinks he is trying to blackmail him, but he isn't. He tells her how much he cares and likes them all and he apologizes for not telling her sooner but Phillip said that she was too fragile to handle anything but of course Edmund thinks she is a strong woman who is very smart and can handle her own life. Beth apologizes to him and goes in to talk to Phillip. She tells him that she knows everything and she believes Edmund isn't trying to hurt them. She tells him just to let him have his board seat and forget about it. Phillip goes out, starts to confront Edmund when the ice cream gang shows up again. Lizzie had brought her dad chocolate chip and cherry ice cream and asked him to taste it. He looked at his daughter and understood that he needed to think about what is important in life. He hugged her, ate some of his ice cream and told Edmund that he changed his mind and wont stand in his way for the board seat. Harley follows him into his office and asks him to tell her the truth. He shied away from that and told her that he didn't want to fight anymore so he caved. Harley got upset, knowing that he was lying to her. She left and thought about it for a minute. She thinks Edmund is blackmailing Phillip.

At Drew's:
They brought Jesse home. Drew is trying to take care of him. Rick is checking his vitals. Drew tells Rick thanks for taking care of Jesse.

He knows where some off shore accounts are and he can get the cash there. Michelle wants to know how they will prove her innocence if they are sailing around all the time.

He told her that she was the best thing that ever happened to him and that he knows they have an arrangement but he has to be honest with her. He says he is totally, uncontrollable, madly in love with her. Cassie stared at him in disbelief.
